In the latest episode of Karthika Deepam, Soundarya tells Shravya that the parents of a married woman should be ready to support her in case of a problem at her in-law’s place. Shravya then questions Soundarya why did she keep her daughter (Swapna) away.
Anand Rao intervenes and asks Shravya to avoid probing into this topic because it might damage their equation altogether. Shravya apologizes and Adithya overhears this. He asks Shravya why she is apologizing again. Anand Rao lies about the same and sends them off to Bhagyam’s place.
Anand Rao asks Soundarya whether she is hurt by Shravya’s questions about Swapna. She replies that Shravya is not aware of the fact that she has been taking care of Swapna in the US staying in touch with their son-in-law.
Soundarya adds she is worried that Shravya is not treating Deepa as her own sister yet. She fears that it might lead to problems when Deepa returns home in future. Anand Rao comforts her by adding that Adithya will control Shravya then.
Monitha vents her frustration and helplessness over the growing proximity between Karthik and Deepa. She determines to do something about it.
At home, Bhagyam prepares snacks for Shravya and Adithya. She says that Shravya is not dumb like Deepa and that she can control Adithya. He overhears the conversation and slam satires at Bhagyam. Murali Krishna and Adithya spend some time together.
Deepa waits for Karthik to drop her at the market while he purposefully ignores her. The neighbour intervenes and insists Karthik to drop her. On their way, Deepa tries to be nice with Karthik. But he asks her to agree for divorce adding that he is ready to compensate beyond her expectations. Deepa replies that she wants to live with him. As he tries to point out at her infidelity, she underlines his suspicious nature too.
